THE SHOCK OF SATIRE AND THE SHOCK OF WACO
|
|
=========================================
|
|
|
|
Rattling in my head was "Gee. They get all fired up over a little
|
|
satire, but tell them about FBI snipers murdering people at Waco
|
|
and there's no response." Then the phone rings and it's a
|
|
reporter from the Washington Post: "Say, what's this I hear
|
|
about Orlin Grabbe admitting it's 'all a hoax?'" he asks.
|
|
|
|
Incidental to our conversation was his mention of Ambrose
|
|
Evans-Pritchard's claim regarding FBI snipers at Waco. "Ah-hah.
|
|
So it is revealed that the mighty Washington Post is aware of
|
|
Evans-Pritchard's claim!" I thought to myself. "Will the
|
|
Washington Post do a story either confirming or denying the 'FBI
|
|
snipers at Waco' charge?" I wondered.
|
|
|
|
If it was me in charge of the FBI, I would consider myself
|
|
honor-bound to answer Evans-Pritchard's charges. After all, any
|
|
FBI Director possessing a shred of self-respect must either be
|
|
outraged at the aspersions being cast on his Bureau or furious
|
|
that any organization connected with his good name has done
|
|
something so despicable. No decent human being could leave such
|
|
charges unanswered.
|
|
|
|
And of course, just imagine if someone were to do a satire of the
|
|
FBI! Oh-hoh! Would Louie Freeh ever hit the roof!
|
|
|
|
This past year, the inimicable Orlin Grabbe has charged that
|
|
Vince Foster was murdered, that Foster was a traitor and a spy,
|
|
that Hillary Clinton was his partner, that a wave of political
|
|
retirements this season is due to bribed politicians having been
|
|
found out by a rogue CIA team of hackers calling themselves the
|
|
"Fifth Column" -- yet Washington Post does not call Conspiracy
|
|
Nation to ask, "Hey, what's going on?" THEN, Professor Grabbe
|
|
dabbles in the infamous black arts of satire, and "ring... ring"
|
|
goes my phone. Suddenly the Washington Post has awakened; could
|
|
it be there is a hot story here?
|
|
|
|
Like I say, rattling around in my head was surprise at what
|
|
upsets people: U.S. Government murders trapped Branch Davidians
|
|
at Waco -- ho-hum. Orlin Grabbe writes a satirical essay -- HEY!
|
|
WE DON'T WANT NO "SATIRE" 'ROUND HERE!
|
|
|
|
One Branch Davidian who by the grace of God survived both being
|
|
burned to death as well as the apparent FBI snipers was
|
|
Livingstone Fagan. You can read all about him and the Waco
|
|
Massacre in *The Ashes of Waco* (by Dick Reavis) and *The
|
|
Davidian Massacre* (by Carol Moore).
|
|
|
|
Here is recent contact info for Livingstone Fagan, provided by

Sb: ROLC: Davidian Prisoner Moved to Leavenworth
|
|
Fm: Lance Arron, Hamilton > INTERNET:lancehamilton@sisna.com
|
|
|
|
Davidian Prisoner Livingstone Fagan, who received a sentence of
|
|
40 years based on perjured evidence by FBI agents, has been moved
|
|
to the Federal Correctional Institute at Leavenworth. Fagan has
|
|
refused to work and otherwise cooperate with authorities since
|
|
placed in federal prisons and has been in solitary confinement --
|
|
"the hole" -- for almost two years. During this time he wrote a
|
|
book about his experiences during the siege and about David
|
|
Koresh's interpretation of the seven seals. (It is available
|
|
from me on e-mail. Please e-mail me at my other
|
|
address--cmoore@upx.net. I'll be able to send out copies after
|
|
7/10.)
|
|
|
|
Feel free to write Livingstone letters of support. While he may
|
|
not be able to reply, the fact he gets lots of letters upon his
|
|
moving there should impress the authorities and hopefully make it
|
|
less likely he will suffer any abuse or harassment from guards.
|
|
Also, he gets pretty bored in there and enjoys receiving books
|
|
and magazines on religious and political issues. If you would
|
|
like to contribute some money for him to write his children in
|
|
England and others and make phone calls (when they let him near a
|
|
phone), send postal money orders with his registration number on
|
|
them. Even $5.00 will be appreciated.
